Transportation of Soil Particles under Raindrop Erosion | Soil Management

Kinnel (2004) described the transportation of soil particles under raindrop erosion in following four processes: 1. Raindrop Detachment with Transport by Raindrop Splash (RD-ST) Raindrop Detachment with Transport by Raindrop Induced Flow Transport (RD-RIFT) 3. Raindrop Detachment with Transport by Flow (RD-FT) 4. Flow Detachment with Transport by Raindrop (FD-FT). These processes are described as under: 1. Raindrop Detachment with [...]

Water Erosion Risk: Assessment and Factors | Soil Management

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Introduction to Water Erosion Risk 2. Assessment of Water Erosion Risk 3. Factors 4. Methods. Introduction to Water Erosion Risk: The assessment of relative risk of erosion to bare soil involves consideration of slope class erodibility. Previous vegetative covers are not taken into consideration for water erosion risk analysis. Also, it is [...]

Permanent Structures for Gully Control: 4 Types | Soil Management

The following points highlight the four main types of permanent structures for gully control. The types are: 1. Spillway 2. Rubble Masonry Dam 3. Concrete Dam 4. Gabion Structure. The gully control structures are laid in the gully section, throughout the length, according to the profile of gully bed. Amongst different types of spillways, the chute spillways are located at [...]
